Good digging from @matthewkeys.net on how many publications - from the NYPost to Variety - flipped a fake press release into a story about a company's supposed $43 billion bid on Paramount.

Hey folks.
Some thoughts on the REMARKABLE change in the election this past week brought by Harris's candidacy, who she is, and what she represents.
As a political historian -- it's been quite something to see.

OMG, @ifbookspod.bsky.social just did an episode on Richard Hanania’s “The Origins of Woke”!
I cackled at their description of the book: “One man attempts to trace the lineage of modern "wokeness" and imagine a world without it. He is hampered severely by the fact that he is not normal.”

USA Today being on the front lines of this and hammering it over and over to their readers is doing so much more for democracy than the pub that has "Democracy Dies In Darkness" as its tagline
No surprise here: USA TODAY finds at least five Project 2025 contributors “have a history of racist writing or statements, or white supremacist activity.”
One “contributor wrote in his PhD dissertation that immigrants have lower IQs than white native citizens …”
